How to use Kami Companions Selection modes

The Kami Companion Selection Modes: your go-to for helping students use learning supports with the right type of selection. It gives learners three ways to select content on a webpage so they can use tools like Read aloud, Explain, Translate, and Dictionary more effectively.

Use it before students start using Kami Companion so they know when to highlight a passage, tap a single word, or select an area like an image for support.

In this video, you’ll learn how to:

💚 Use Default select to highlight text on a page

💚 Choose Word select to tap a single word for definitions

💚 Use Area select to highlight an image or section of the page

💚 Match each Selection mode to the right Kami Companion tool

💚 Use Read aloud with highlighted text

💚 Use Explain for text selections and image selections

💚 Use Dictionary and Picture Dictionary with Word select

These options support multilingual learners and students who benefit from learning supports, so they can access the same content as peers with more independence.
